Pine isn't a ftp program. It is a e-mail reader. You can 
download ,savw , export several attn at one time.

I need more information to answer the question.  Are you talking about 
downloading files from a main directory, or from an e-mail/newsgroup 
folder?  
>From an e-mail/newsgroup folder, type ; a a e   name a file, then 
download that file.
Downloading several files at a time (through my account) is done by 
listing the file names, followed by a comma and a space.  This is not 
done through pine, though.
I hope this helps.  Let me know if you have any questions.

.
I hope this helps:
In Pine, you can tag messages from the "Index" screen, with ";aae". The
semi-colon is the tag; the "a" is for "all" (you can also tag selected
messages by number); the 2nd "a" is for "apply", and "e" is for "export.
Then you'll be asked for a file name. Once it's named, you can go out of
pine, and at the command prompt (cam%) type "sz filename". This will
download using zmodem.
If this isn't clear, or not what you were asking, let me know.

Suzane,
If you're using version 3.95, you can type ; and use the menu that it
gives you.  You can highlight based on who the mail is from, who the mail
is going to or even the date.  It's very useful.
Hope this helps,
        Chet

Wildcards can be used for downloading from the pine program.
Best way to di it is by exporting it as a series of say a1,a2,a3....
files to your unix and then using (sz a*) downloads all the files.

Would it be possible for you to share the answer for your above question ?
because we are also having the same doubt or problem.
Reason :
Insteaded of posting to news group, the same message again,
